Can Topamax + other drugs reduce migraine symptoms permanently? My neurologist has advised me to take Topamax as the core drug, and others as needed, to help break my constant head pressure (or chronic daily headache as she calls it.) She claims the combination will help to break the cycle and eventually I can get down to just a few days of headaches per month, and then come off all the drugs. Does it really work this way for some people? I'd like to be optimistic, but my skeptical side wonders if such a thing is even possible. Has anyone here had such an experience?

What are YOUR migraine symptoms? I have had migraines since I was 10 (I'm 22 now) and for the last week I have been experiencing really terrible pain that is similar to a migraine, but w/ COMPLETELY different symptoms than normal. I have been keeping in touch w/ my neurologist, and she has ordered me another MRI which I am waiting to get done. I've also had to go to Urgent Care a few times, and all of the doctors keep saying they are "hoping" that I'm having A-typical migraines... While I sit around and wait, in extreme pain and feeling disoriented, I was hoping that any of you who experience migraines could list off ALL symptoms that you have EVER had, so I can see the possibility of this being the case. Thanks for helping put my mind at ease!! (or not... lol)
tell me all about your migraine symptoms? ok so ive had migraines since i was 4. and seem to be growing out of them as they have cut down to only a few a year. i just wanted to know if anyone gets all the same symptoms. my symptoms are the exact same every time and i can often wake up knowing it feels like im gonna get a migraine that day. First my head goes little fuzzy and my eyes feel strained, i then get a little black dot which gets bigger and bigger. while this is happenin i start to feel a little sick, my right arm always feels disattached almost like its not my arm, i get pins and needles in my tongue and then my fingers and arm. my vision gets so bad i can only see half of peoples face for example, i then lose basically all ability to think and talk, i turn into like a 4 year old learning things for the first time, i get a stammer, forget everything im saying, i forget names of things, and how to tell the time. a few hours of lying down in the dark with my migraine tablets and lose most of the symptoms and just left with REALLY sore head. ive never known anyone with exact same symptoms yet so please tell me all yours. i have never figured out what causes mine, oh and i get a weird taste in mouth and things smell funny

Migraine-like symptoms without the intensity of a migraine...? I used to have migraines frequently as a teen, but thought I "grew out" of them (I'm 21) as they became few and far between. During the past few months I've had headaches with migraine-like symptoms (one-sided, nausea, visual stuff, serious fatigue) during PMS. The headache itself is pretty uncomfortable, but not nearly as bad as some of the migraines I've had in the past. Anyone else experience headaches like this? Is it possible to have migraine-like headaches with less pain?

please decipher my blood test and does it have any connection to migraine symptoms.? I recently had to visit the hospital after feeling disorientated at work. When I got to the hospital I had a serious throbbing headache. My experience happened in Puerto Rico. The medical care I received was a joke. They forgot about me in the waiting room. I waited 4 hours with no help. The only thing I accomplished at the hospital was getting my blood taken. The staff couldn't speak English and I felt me being there was pointless so I left after 4-5 hours after feeling fine, just having a terrible headache. For 7 months after this I was completely fine until I came back home from surfing one day in the hot sun and began to feel disorientated again. My right hand felt a little numb and I had a throbbing headache again for 5 hours or more. I went online to a Medical service where a person pays a fee and can chat online with doctors instead of having to go through visiting a hospital. The doctor commented that she believes I experienced a "Classical Migraine with Aura". This was due to the fact I had exercised a lot prior to my throbbing headaches and the symptoms I explained about the numbness and disorientation both times seem to fit the category. The reason I am hesitant to make a big deal about seeking medical care is because I have a very high profile job which requires a strict yearly physical and I fear the fallout if bringing this to my managements attention and the other reason is I am simply living in a 3rd world country when it comes to medical care. The hospital visit from 8 months ago or so came back with the following blood test results: All results were normal however, the following things were high (flagged): WBC - 12.50 Normal levels: 4.5-11.0 K/uL RDW - 14.7 Normal levels: 11.5- 14.5% Neutrophils - 81.70 Normal levels: 47-76% BMP/ Glucose- 107 Normal levels:74-106mg/dl Creatine-1.33 Normal levels:0.8-1.3mg/dl Carbon Dioxide-32.5 Normal levels: 21-32mmol/L Thanks for the help cheers
I used to get migraines ALOT and of course I would have the symptoms that would come before the migraine...? but now I am just having the symptoms without migraines following is it possible they are due to something else? Like is it possible they might be telling me something else is wrong? I am experiencing a blinding sensation in one or both eyes, but I can still see...it's almost like my eyes are wrapped in alumnium foil. It's kind of strange so I don't know how to explain it. I've also experienced some some pain in my eyes and slight pain in my head but right along with the symptoms not after them as what used to happen and it's not anything close to a migraine feeling. Can anyone help me out with this I don't want my doc to think I'm crazy when I try to explain this to him.

Will a uk General practitioner prescribe co-codamol or similar formulations for intensifying migraine?

Will a gp consent to this? Please respond with as much detail as you can : ) Thankyou in advance!

Do these sound like migraine symptoms? For the last four weeks I've had a severe headache. I called my neurologist (I have epilepsy) and he said I'm having migraines and prescribed me medication but it's not helping. I'm scheduled for an MRI in a few days and a long term EEG next month. I have a feeling it's something other than a migraine because I have different symptoms. The symptoms are: Severe headache (sharp pains and pressure in all parts of my head) Head feels like it's on fire Dizziness Stiff joints (mainly in knees) Nausea Vertigo Weakness Burny eyes. I'm desperate for an answer. Any ideas?

silent migraine symptoms? Please help.? 'm 19 and i've had a variety of physical symptoms for years. I've always been able to deal with them until a few weeks ago when I started having intense depersonalization/depression along with the symptoms. I've seen doctors, have had all sorts of tests (EEG, CT Scans) and they can't find anything wrong, except for the fact that I have some small ovarian cysts. I did see a neurotologist who diagnosed me with having silent migraines. He prescribed me Topamax, but I can't take it because it gives me severe panic attacks I had to check myself into a psychiatric hospital because I just couldn't this. The psychiatrist said it's not migraines and just anxiety and prescribed me Prozac, Seroquel, and Pamelor, but it's not helping. I can't think of anything that would be cauing this intense depersonalization. My physical symptoms are: Blurry/double vision/seeing blue dots/stars Loud crackling sounds in both ears Pressure on one side of head "Heavy" feeling in right arm Memory loss Vertigo Tingling/numbness These symptoms are 24/7. What could this be? It's ruining my life.
Migraine symptoms??? I suffer from migraines and I believe that I might have had one while sleeping. Before going to bed I had vision symptoms then woke up alot during the night and woke up with my head feeling like there is pressure and eyes hurting most likely from video games it's around 2 days later and my head is still a little sensitive also I might be coming down with a illness here's those symptoms- nose run, slight aches, a little cold, no fever and no sore throat. And a slight stomach ache- with a loss of appetite. I don't believe it's the flu because thesymptoms and slight and I have been feeling like this for the past 2 days. And I heard from people that it just comes out of nowhere.
